10 points around JavaFX

Posted by brunogh on October 11, 2007 at 02:52 PM | Comments (9)

I did not have time to post about some news I got around JavaFX before, due to many things I've been doing in the last weeks. Now is the time! I have attended, weeks ago, to a conference call with some Java Champions and Sun people. It was a really great discussion and there are some points that I want to share. Here is the list of them in bullet form:
  • JavaFX Script and Consumer JRE (or Consumer Release or, now, Project Hamburg) improve experiences and moves attention to client-side. Keep an eye in Chet Haase's Blog for more around Consumer JRE.
  • As an advantage against others (Silverlight, Flash, etc), JavaFX Script has the Java plataform (scalability, reliability, portability... and, do not forget, a huge community).
  • JavaFX Script will be community-driven as an open source project (check OpenJFX Community, JavaFX Compiler) and it means, in some way, no company controlling it alone.
  • JavaFX Script runtime can be standalone, Java Web Start or Applet.
  • Sun is working in an authoring tool (WYSIWYG) for designers and content authors.
  • Sun is working in improvements in the actual Netbeans plugin for developers.
  • A lot of stuff will be available for the first quarter of 2008.
  • JavaFX Mobile will support MIDP (Mobile Information Device Profile) on CDC (Connected Device Configuration). You will be able to run JavaFX Script, existing Midlets as well as CDC apps. (Hey, I want to talk about it. Looks pretty weird MIDP on CDC at first sight, but, remember, Midlets have the biggest percentual in the market now and you need to keep supporting the existing applications).
  • There is a JavaFX Mobile emulator internally at Sun that they are playing with.
  • JavaFX Mobile developer phones and emulators will be available fairly early in the new year.
Also, take a look in the Champion Yakov Fain post about the conference call too. Thanks Aaron Houston for organizing it. He have posted, in the Java Champions page, a JavaFX presentation from Sun Tech Days (Boston) and one from Midwest Java Tech Day. Good stuff!

Do not miss the next chapters around JavaFX, looks that Santa Claus will keep the gifts for the next year! :)

Thanks,
Bruno Ghisi

  • Hi guys,
    Thanks for all the tips and updates! I am sure that the readers have appreciate, as well as I have.
    Hi robogeek, in my mind I tough Project Hamburg was after Java SE 6 Update N, I just realized it isn't now. Thanks! :)

  • Just to make it confusing for your readers we changed the code name for the project which was formerly known as ConsumerJRE and was formerly known as Project Hamburg. It is now known as 6uN.

  • Bruno,

    I appreciated your post, and am very excited about the potential that JavaFX Script has in helping simplify rich internet application development, as well as enabling mobile application development.

    I do want to make you and your readers aware of a recently published JavaFX Script book that I’m very proud of, called “JavaFX Script: Dynamic Java Scripting for Rich Internet/Client-side Applications”. It’s an Apress firstPress book, and is available as a downloadable eBook or paperback at http://www.apress.com/book/view/1590599454. It’s also available on Amazon, B&N, etc.

    Thanks,

  • Hello Bruno ...and also rationalpi

    Thanks for the input about the Java FX emulator... I'm sure the Java FX team is thinking about other platforms as well... We've still got a lot of work over here to do... infrastructure: compiler, emulator, media player, Consumer JRE, building community...lots of stuff going-on..so thanks for your interest--we know this isn't gonna be easy....and thanks to Bruno for blogging about this...will let Nandini, Bob, and the Java FX team know about your blog....And for those reading this and have an interest....think about joining Open JFX community...get involved...impact change...they need your help...

  • Hi Bruno!
    All these things are really exciting.
    I know you will remember when I said several times that PHP was a very good language. Now I see that all I said was about scripting languages, not about PHP... there are lots of advantages of a script langage against such a hard and unflexible language as Java is.
    I'm really exciting about JavaFX. I hope it achives higher maturity soon.. and I'll hope I can get from you lots of tips from you in a Vasquinho's table.=)
    Regards man! Great post!

  • Hi,
    I don't have tech details around it, but I hope it is not just on Windows... as soon as I get any additional information, I will post here.
    Thanks,
    Bruno

  • PLEASE, tell me that the Java FX Mobile emulator will run on something other than Windoze.

    I would love to work on some mobile stuff, but I don't/won't do Windows.

    Thanks
    Josh
